I've been playing since first edition, so I had to check the rules. There is a slight rule misunderstanding. The leader starts only a "round." That round is going around the table once as people put one card into their flight. The person who played the highest number during that round becomes the leader for the next round. They lead off, automatically activating their power, in the next round - putting their next card in their flight. Once the round is complete you see who played the highest number and they lead the next round. After three rounds (or as many as are needed) then you total up your flight and check against the other players to see who wins that gambit or cluster of rounds.
correct, if i accidentally said the leader goes first for all the rounds, i either misspoke or misremembered, but yes, the leader is whoever played the highest card that round
So does that mean that the previous rounds don't count towards whether a card activates or does the first card played in a round just always activate regardless of its value?
@@Chocobie which one is correct? It was an either or question 😅 I assume you mean previous rounds don't count, since that also implies that the first player's card always activates?
Three Dragon Ante is a gambling game in-verse for the official D&D setting so of course it is luck based, most gambling card games are. Some skill is involved but for the most part you have to play the cards you are dealt and that can be quite swingy.
My friends and i's D&D group worked this into a session of our campaign at one point and it was pretty fun, but my main problem that I had with it was that I was expecting something more gambling based from a tavern game, and while I understand that they probably didn't want to do that with their family-friendly brand I kind of wish they had
Since this is an in-canon card game for D&D, is the idea that the card's abilities magically activate or does playing the game require you to be able to read small writing on cards presumably in whichever language is most usual to the area?
If you're looking for an in-game justification, I'm sure that actual cards in the game setting wouldn't have writing on them - everyone would just know what the silver dragon or the dracolich card did by learning from others, like most playing card games today
@@bcdm999 that makes sense. But also, most playing card games don't have every single card have a different effect but, idk, Aces and Sevens, or Hearts and Diamonds. It's only games like Magic the Gathering where each card is unique, and games like those always have writing, just like this game does.
"King dragon sends his regards" might be perfect in this game

@@sourwitch2340 Correct. That gives a reason to play higher cards in hopes to lead off the next round.

oh nice, recognised the title from DnD and wondered how it actually worked
Wow! You've introduced me to so much board games, that I didn't even know existed. I can't even imagine how many you have stacked on your shelf.
This game is nerdy war with extra steps and I LOVE IT!
Nice informative and fun explanation. although this board game might not be a tryout for me, I still had a lot of fun watching this video!
Oh dam looks interesting just need some people to play with
indeed...
Yup... Just like DnD as a whole... Woop.
I wish you all an amazing week
I never knew this was a real board game you could buy, and the fact it does makes me happier than it should
Always love me a board game review
I wanted to play that game years ago and was shocked on the price
You have the coolest collection of games and manga in the background 🤩 Also, that was a very understandable explanation thanks!
I love Three Dragon Ante.
3 dragon has always been fun

@ProZD Does this version include the gem dragons? I remember their being a version with those in it.
King dragon’s favorite game

Yo what’s up prozd
Where do I get that Karate Joe shirt?
have you tried any 40k tabletop games?
You should check out Vikings gone wild
Why did I think Three Dragon Ante was dice?
Maybe before Wizards of The Coast made it a real game someone made a dice based version for their D&D games?
that tablecloth pattern is messing with me
Ooh, a game I own!
